Yesterday I created an interactive image to demonstrate how easy it is to engage in collaborative leaving with ThingLink. If you explore the live image, you will discover the Padlet online board that is being used to assemble collaborator's thoughts. I've pulled some of the ideas together and have been adding them to the ThingLink to define the song through multimedia. Now I am digging deeper to connect standards and design a student driven learning experience.

I recently added instaGrok to the bulletin board for one click access to a useful interactive learning tool and search engine. I used the Mastery Connect App to quickly reference the CCSS and demonstrated a way to use Wordle as a starting point to engage students in a CCSS aligned vocabulary activity. Let's not forget Digital Citizenship. All images are linked back to original sources and credit is given. Creative Commons Share Alike Licenses are always appreciated.There are many untapped learning opportunities to be pulled out of the song. I am looking for resources to make good learning good connections.Feel free to tap on the Padlet and add ideas and links or suggest learning connections you see. Stay tuned and watch it grow.
